This report is concerned with the strategy and methodology
for investigating four major categories of biological particles in the
indoor air of private houses, non-industrial workplaces and public buildings
(excluding hospitals). These particles are mites and their faeces; dander
from pets and other furred animals; fungi, including moulds and yeasts;
and bacteria, including actinomycetes. For each of these categories the
following items have been considered: health effects; occurrence; available
sampling methods; available methods of analysis; recommendations for different
studies; and observed values and evaluation of results. Health effects,
occurrence and sampling and analysis of Legionella are also briefly discussed.
